'Make or break' | Surprising link between productivity and your culture explained

Nine in 10 workers think there is a strong link between their firm’s culture and their wellbeing and productivity, new research has found.

The study undertaken by wellbeing specialists Westfield Health highlights the importance of workplace culture and its impact on businesses' success.

In the midst of companies struggling to find employees, data from Westfield Health’s survey of 2,000 workers has shown how much of a role workplace culture plays in retaining and attracting people. More than three-fifths of employees (64%) have stated they would leave their job if their organisation’s culture was not a good fit.

Results from the survey concluded that the vast majority (86%) of employees said they were more productive at work if there was a good culture, while 85% said there was a link between workplace culture and wellbeing.
